The Birthday Post

(I think today will be a multiple post kind of day, life is like that.)

Happy Birthday to Me! It's tricky taking a photo of a photo, but that's me - just about 1 month old. And now, I'm 30. Crazyness. In my head, I'm only 25? maybe 27? 23 seems too young, 28 doesn't seem right either. I don't plan to be one of those "29 forever" people, I'm perfectly fine to share my age - shout it from the rooftops as it were. While some people I know agonized over turning 30 and how old it is, that's just not me. It's a milestone and should be recognized and embraced.

I think it will be a quiet day - Lorelai and I will do some errands, and just hang out. And learn how to use my "new baby"A Canon PowerShot S5 IS - so cool!!!!

I didn't blog this before, but Theatreknitter got me yarn for my birthday - I'm thinking I'll use it for Summer of Socks!

Tomorrow night we are going out with my brothers & sister-in-law-to-be to Miso - sushi, yum!!

Here's another photo of me, maybe 6 months old or so (about the same as Lorelai is now!)

It's a lucky woman who can continue to enjoy her birthday as a special day long after the elementary school parties are done. I have a husband who's well-trained in the ways of wifely birthdays, so it's all good.

About Me

I knit. A lot. I like to make functional things and silly things, and frequently put these items on my mini-dachshund. When I am not knitting or crocheting I am thinking about these things for my clients, as I am an account manager doing social media marketing for yarn companies, yarn shops and designers. It is a great job that I enjoy and I feel incredibly lucky to have. I am able to work from home and enjoy my two children.
